Description:
The Black Creek Nature Trail begins at the Davison Township Municipal Center and joins the Abernathy Park Trail in the city of Davison. These two trails, which connect the township and city, are part of the area's efforts to encourage a healthy, active community. Trail-goers will enjoy the tree-lined, 1.6-mile route along the Black Creek to the 138-acre park. In May 2011, the Davison Arch was erected where the township and city meet on the trail and is a monument to the joint effort to create the trail.

Dog Run
By pintwister in April, 2011
I have ridden this trail many times. It has the potential of being a very good bike trail, but residents have turned this beautiful trail into a dog run. It is almost impossible to have a pleasurable ride without having to ride off the trail to avoid someone's dog.
BLACK CREEK NATURE TRAIL
By pmiller/davtwp in February, 2011
Though this trail is still being added to and improved, it remains one of the areas best kept secrets. Even though it is only 1.6 miles in length, it traverses through senic areas and has an abundance of bird and wildlife along it's course. It also connects to the existing park/trail system located within the boundries of the city of Davison increasing the total length to just over 4 miles. Along the way there are resting areas located at 1/4 mile intervals with proposed picnic areas, gazebos and a future dog park planned. This trail is shared by walkers, runners, in-line skaters and bycyclists and has ample parking at both ends of it. Whether to exercise or to help drop a few pounds come on out and enjoy a leisurely stroll on Davison's jewel, the Black Creek Nature Trail.
